Washington is expected to prioritize aid to Israel and put conditions on continued funding to Ukraine<\/strong><\/p>\n Hamas is using US-supplied weapons to attack Israel even as Washington prepares to step up military aid to West Jerusalem, former CIA analyst Larry Johnson told RT on Monday.<\/p>\n “It’s probably 100% sure that the weapons were supplied by the United States<\/em>,” Johnson opined, explaining that the only question was whether the Palestinian militant group’s weapons had come from US supplies diverted from Ukraine, Afghanistan, or the Palestinian Authority in the West Bank. <\/p>\n Noting there were “no effective controls<\/em>” on the billions of dollars in arms and military financing funneled from the US to Ukraine in the last two years, Johnson observed that even weapons supplied by Israel to Ukraine might have made it back to Hamas via the black market, suggesting the war unfolding in Gaza “will tell us how extensive some of those weapons supplies have been.<\/em>”<\/p>\n
